As luck will have it, I will be in Nashville for work during the NWTF convention.
Does anyone know if Darrin Dawkins will have a booth? Paul Platz? I didn't see them listed on the NWTF site. Definitely planning to check out David Halloran's, SS and Jimmy Shaffer's calls. Mostly interested in pot calls. Any other "do not miss" callmakers?
Thanks,
Mike
Unfortunately we're gonna miss the show Mike. Wish we could have met you.Along with the one's you mentioned, Another good booth to check out for pot calls is Lonzo (Lon Trice). Chad Hutcheson will probably be in the booth with Lonzo...
Here is the map of the convention and who is in what booth.

Thanks for the map but there are a lot of callmakers that I know will be there that aren't on the list. Do they just setup with others at a different booth?
Well whether you buy anything or not stop by my both (849) and introduce yourself, I would be glad to meet you.
Sam
I definitely will stop by. Your Hillbilly diaphragm is one of my go to mouth calls.
Glad to hear it and thank you very much.
I spoke with mr. Dawkins and mr. Williams recently and both said they will not be going.

Call makers without booths will be walking around or may be in someone else's booth. There are some booths that may have 4 or 5 call makers in them. Some guys just float around. Usually they aren't hard to find. Anyone in particular you are looking for?
Schaffer won't have a booth selling stuff,but he will be there for the show.
I'm going to meet up with jimmy Shaffer for sure. Was hoping Dawkins would be there. Would also like to see some of pat strawsers calls.
Steve Mann will be there with calls to sell. Call him now if you want one. They go quick.
Russell Beard and myself will be there in booth 726. Stop by for a chat and play some calls!

You lucky sob. Im jealous. I thought about making the road trip myself.
I will be set up with a friend Ed Jenkins of Ghostmaker call--Ed makes some really fine pot calls. We have Twisting Creek booths 1220 & 1222--stop by for a visit---really like meeting the guys I know of on the forums
Mike, I sure am lucky. Couldn't believe the client asked if I could reschedule the meeting from the 20th to the 13th, worked out perfectly. I will be down there Thursday night till Friday night or maybe Saturday too. Welcome to join me down there.
I would not go!! Stay home and spend your gas and entry money and order more calls and stuff ofline with it.
More bang for your buck.
I will not have a booth but I will be there the whole weekend just floating around and would love to meet some of you. $750 is too much to pay for a booth for someone with nothing to sell :TooFunny: I am not a mass producer and only make calls when I have orders so I have no inventory except raw materials!

$750????
I thought the price was higher than that for returning vendors and even higher for first timers.......
Stop by booth 726 and tell us about the raw materials you have.

I'll be there too. There's nothing better than to have the call in your hand, play it and listen for yourself how it sounds. I feel blessed to be living close by.
I try and go to every booth and play as many as I can. David Halloran is one of my favorite call maker's. I also like to stock up on mouth calls too.
I look forward to the Convention every year, its an awesome thing to see.
Stop by the Hooks custom call booth 331 and just say hi. I'll be there working some and roaming around the rest of the time. Always great to meet the guys from the forums.
Safe travels to everyone!
Neal
Stop by the Hook's booth 331 to grab an exterminator. I won't be there this year but get Neal or Steve to run it for you.
Mike,
I would like to meet you as well. If you get a chance stop by booth 912 (Foot on DA Head), I would love to talk turkey with you!
-Drew Able
Thanks all. Hoping to meet some of you on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. Safe travels!
This will be my first year ever going, I cant wait! :funnyturkey:
